From birth to death and beyond
This book depicts people at some of the most emotional moments of their lives. For more than seven years Anders Ryman traveled the world documenting life cycle rituals. The result is a book that in intimate and stunning pictures portrays more than thirty rituals from all parts of the globe.
The rites range from the blessing of the newborn in a small village in Spain to a girl's initiation into womanhood among the Apaches of Arizona; from the Xhosa male initiation ceremony in South Africa to the communion with the dead during Todos Santos in Bolivia; from a woman's first childbirth in Palau to the wedding ceremonies in the Shinto shrines of Tokyo.
This book is about the journey through life, about cultural diversity and what unites us all as human beings.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren. De la naissance à la mort et au-delà, ce livre dépeint des personnes lors de certains des moments les plus émouvants de leur vie. Anders Ryman a voyagé à travers le monde pendant plus de sept ans pour documenter les rituels du cycle de la vie. Le résultat est un livre qui, à travers des images intimes et saisissantes, présente plus de trente rituels provenant de toutes les parties du globe. Les rites vont de la bénédiction du nouveau-né dans un petit village en Espagne à l'initiation d'une fille à la féminité parmi les Apaches de l'Arizona ; de la cérémonie d'initiation masculine Xhosa en Afrique du Sud à la communion avec les morts lors de Todos Santos en Bolivie ; de l'accouchement d'une femme à Palau aux cérémonies de mariage dans les sanctuaires shintoïstes de Tokyo. Ce livre parle du parcours de la vie, de la diversité culturelle et de ce qui nous unit tous en tant qu'êtres humains. Artikel-Nr. b0897a08-b074-4540-9a0e-48bfe9abfeff
